GOING HOLLYWOOD
From : Going Hollywood (1933)
Bing Crosby
Out where they say,
"Let us be gay"
I'm going Hollywood
I'll ballyhoo
Greetings to you
I'm going Hollywood
Say, while you sleepyheads
Are in that hay
I'll be dancing
I'm gonna be dancing
With a sun-kissed baby
And I'm on my way
Here's my beret
I'm going Hollywood
